Guest post: The silence of the library alarms
Originally a comment by Your Name’s not Bruce? on He had benefited.
The transgender community fears its rights are “melting away” after a legal ruling which has left people “terrified”, according to one trans woman.
Well they wouldn’t have melted away so easily if they had been actual rights, and not based on an unlawful interpretation of the statutes they were carried in on, would they?
Sarah Savage, a trans woman who is the chief executive and co-founder of Trans Pride Brighton, said it was not long ago that trans rights felt “solidified”.
Only to the degree by which your campaign of lying, bullying, and terrorism had succeeded. These “rights” were only “solid” because they were enforced on a largely apathetic, deceived, and cowed public, through the expedient of “NO DEBATE.” Actual opponents to this program were villified and threatened. Yeah, some really solid “rights” there, mate.
“Trans people just want to have a quiet life, we just want to get on with it. We don’t want all this drama, we just want respect.”
HAHAHAHA! Thats a good one! No, really, let’s dig into this. Let’s look at just one of your own actions and see how well they conform to this claim. I’m talking of course about your library alarm stunt. Fire alarms are not “quiet.” Misusing them is usually a criminal offence. How did your pulling that fire alarm to disrupt a meeting on women’s health help you “just get on with it”? How was that not drama? How did that contribute to your desire for “respect”? It shows you to be a self-centred, bullying, contemptable coward of a man. Acts like this go against all of your claims, and in fact hurt the efforts of those apochryphal trans folk who really do want a quiet life. You are not a very constructive poster boy for your cause, but you sure seem to be a representative one.
“It makes me feel scared for the future because my rights are literally being taken away before my very eyes.”
Those aren’t your “rights” you’re seeing taken away, it’s the restoration of stolen property to its rightful owners. Your access and intrusion was illegal from the start. You barged into spaces and opportunities never meant for you, to which you were not entitled or qualified. Nobody has the right to do that, though thugs and gangsters would disagree. That’s what you’ve been; a thug and a gangster. You deserve no sympathy. You knew what you were doing when you violated women’s boundaries. Shut up, get the fuck out, and stay out.
What if I need to go to a hospital? Am I going to be treated with respect?
Respect is a two-way street, and it is earned. You haven’t offered any to the women whose rights and safety you have strived so mightily to diminish, so no respect for you.
What kind of ward am I going to be put in?
One for men, which is what you are, always have been, and always will be. Nothing you say, or wear, or do can ever change that. There’s nothing wrong with that. That’s just the way things are. It’s where you belong. Not with women. You’ve already shown you are threat to them. Nobody has to play along with your delusional self-image. If you still insist on being put into a female only ward, then the facility you should be housed in should be one specializing in mental illness, and a secured one at that.

And it’s so interesting that these same journalists take great pains to let us know that the lower case affectation* of the man they’re quoting is not a spelling mistake on their part. Priorities people, priorities.
…I foresee being forced into the indignity of being on a male ward….
And why is that an indignity for you? You are a man. (See above re: “Sarah” Savage’s hospital ward anxiety.) You don’t need to be on a female ward any more than you need a pap smear or hysterectomy. You might need specialized treatment to take into account any “gender affirming care” you might have subjected yourself to in the past, but none of that turned you into a woman, however extensive and convincingly lifelike they might have turned out. You’re not any kind of woman; stop pretending you are. That continued insistence, and your forcing your delusional beliefs on everyone else (especially women)? There’s your indignity right there.
*Another example of playing helpless and self-effacing? “Oooh look at me with my lower case, I’m so small and unintimidating. Let me into your spaces! I won’t hurt you, I promise! Don’t put me in with the other, beaslty, UPPER CASE men!”

I have some sympathy for the respect issue w/r/t official institutions. But the answer was never to just steal women’s sports and spaces, but rather to advocate for their own protected sub-spaces in the male estate. He is male, no matter how he presents. But everyone should be entitled to safe and respectful care. It just cannot come at women’s expense. And this sort of over the top victim-claiming and brutish behavior hurts their cause more than helps.
Maybe that should read: “Us trans men just want to have our quiet wins in women’s sports. We just want to get on with that process. We don’t want all this drama, we just want the respect that comes from winning. Oh, and also the prizes. Must not forget them. And coverage in the media; not as transwhatevers, mind. As 100% 24-carat women. Plus a few more carats thrown in.”
